Irrigation Pipe (Intake)

The Irrigation Pipe (Intake) is the start of every stone water network. Placed in a body of water, it draws water into the pipes so your base gets running water without carrying jars.

What it is used for

Connect straight, inclined, vertical and intersection pipes to it and lead them to your base. The water then reaches taps and irrigated crop plots along the line. It weighs 4, twice as much as an ordinary pipe section.

Tips

Build the intake close to the base where you can. Long lines are more work to protect, and a broken section cuts off everything behind it. A Water Reservoir can serve as a source too, if no lake or river is near.
